The CFL playoff picture is tightening, and the Raymond Report Strength of Schedule (SOS) Power Ratings highlight which teams are trending up and which are fading fast. Saskatchewan still sets the pace, Calgary looks like their biggest challenger, while Edmonton’s quiet surge has put bettors on notice.
Still the benchmark. Saskatchewan’s PR has held steady at 0.65 across the season and last 7 games. They took a minor hit in the last 3 (PR 0.50), but their balance and depth keep them on top.
The Stamps are pushing hard for #1. Their consistency is unmatched: PR 0.61 both season-long and last 3 games. If anyone can dethrone Saskatchewan in the West, it’s Calgary.
The Ticats slipped but remain the East’s most stable club. Strong recent numbers (PR 0.59 over last 7) suggest they’re hanging tough, even if the gap with the West is still glaring.
Winnipeg quietly moved into the upper half. Their season PR (0.53) is solid, but the last 7 games (PR 0.45) show some slippage. Still a dangerous team, especially at home.
The Lions are treading water. Season PR is neutral (0.50), but the last 7 games (0.54) show slight improvement. They’re a swing team — volatile, but capable of an upset.
Don’t let the season PR fool you. Edmonton is hot — undefeated in their last 3 games (3-0, PR 0.61). If they sustain this momentum, they could leap BC and Winnipeg in short order.
The Als are falling apart. A season PR of 0.46 is bad enough, but their last 3 (PR 0.39) is worse. They’ve lost three straight and bettors should be cautious.
Toronto showed a little life (PR 0.50 in last 3), but the season-long numbers (0.39 PR, 27% win rate) don’t lie. They’re still fade material until further notice.
Another lost season in the capital. Ottawa is competitive at times, but their PR trend (0.43 last 7) is flat. They’ve become a spoiler team, not a contender.
